MODERN STATE: STRONG STATE OR CORPORATION STATE
The article is devoted to identifying key trends in the development of themodern state, its main characteristics and trends of further development.It is determined that modern geopolitical world trends necessarily lead to theneed to create a «strong state», because only a strong state is able to effectively solve theproblems of modern life. Only a strong state can resist the erosion of national-stateidentity, which is associated with modern processes of globalization. The main featuresof such a state should be: the effectiveness of economic transformations; effectiveadministration with a minimum of bureaucracy, control of corruption and bribery;maintaining a high level of transparency and accountability of government institutions;legitimacy and stability of the state, etc.At the same time, it has been determined that today the state has difficultypreserving its national identity, as transnational corporations are destroying theestablished state system; the sharp mobility of the population is increasing, socioeconomic contradictions between regions are intensifying, etc.The idea that in a globalizing world, there is free competition that stimulatesinnovation, reduces prices and benefits the consumer is nothing more than an illusion. Infact, food, medicine, information - everything that is used by every person every day iscontrolled by a few investment firms.The content of the concept of «stakeholder capitalism» is analyzed, which is thatif corporations no longer think exclusively about achieving profit, literally at any cost,then the perception of them in the public consciousness will change – corporations appearas a source of goodness, justice and competence, in contrast to the government, whichdoes not care about the population and constantly leads the situation into crisis.The article analyzes the activities of BigTech - the largest technology companiesthat create their own ecosystems: Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Alibaba, Meta (Facebook),etc., a huge resource that is expressed in money and talents.
